Description
I'm a first time django user and after reading the documentation I started my first experiment. There I encountered a TemplateDoesNotExist error and I had to resort to Stack Overflow to find a solution, which was to add the name of my app to INSTALLED_APPS in settings.
Shouldn't this be mentioned in the documentation ('first steps' section)?

Which page contains the "First steps" section that you mentioned? For what it's worth, the template loading process is briefly described in the tutorial. Did you complete it?
